Wanting Change

Americans by and large want to see changes in their country. They see many problems that should be addressed, they see large amounts of money disappearing into government treasuries, and they wonder if they will be employed in six months. Change is happening, but not very often for the better.

The changes that we need are ones that deal with our selves, our expectations, our hopes, our strengths, and our weaknesses. Understanding that we need to work together to achieve things, so that we can combine our strengths to counter our weaknesses. We have been trained to crave physical, material, monetary rewards in lieu of all else, yet we need spiritual rewards as well; the pride of a job well done, the thrill of achieving a goal with teamwork, the feeling of being included when part of a group working together.

Even more so, we need the emotional and spiritual energy of sharing good times with others, excitement and novelty to inspire creativity, and affirmation and recognition to develop self-esteem. We need to open up to our spiritual side, the side of how we treat each other, and how we treat ourselves. All of us have worth, all of us contribute somehow. Treat yourself like you would treat a good friend. Do not fear change.
